Dish 500 Quad LNB
I already use a Dish 500 with a DP Quad LNB and I hit the 110/119 my question is can I use the same exact setup to hit the 91 and 82 or will I need to separate dishes and lnbs to hit these birds or will one quad do? thank you in advance for your help have a great night.

Re: Dish 500 Quad LNB
You can do that, but in a strong wind your roof and house might take odd with all those individual antennas.
Why not go this way ( see link)

Re: Dish 500 Quad LNB
Hey Vermont sorry this site strips the links I assume to keep folks from selling here . however to try one last time . If i was you I would check into the dishes multi lnb QUAD shown at a site known as worldwide---satellite----dot--com That is without the dashes of course or pm me.. I am not a seller just a old old tester that knows my wife would skin me alive if I tried to add another dish to my roof.

Since i do not know where you live and your view of the Southern sky etc I would not be able to tell you for sure if you can actually "see" all Sats from the one parked at 82 degrees West Longitute. to the last that is located at 119 west that you are interested in. I suggest that you ask the folks at the selling site that specific question. But technically you should be able to receive good signals from just one dish and the properly spaced LNBs on it from all 4. ( thats due to the design of the dish and the angle and spacing of the LNBs that each see (are focused upon a different portion of the skt with that single fixed dish. Good luck and please PM me to let me know how it works out for you.---- Joe
